Great location between many natural attractions. Ron furnished a great deal of info left in the unit. We cook meals and nearby Burney has Safeway and a large discount grocery. All necessary items were supplier per the listing … in very adequate quantities and selection. We really enjoyed our time in the cabin and the area. Not sure the future will bring us back that way but woul definitely stay on Ron’s home again.

Love, love, love the Hat Creek Retreat!!
Spent 3 wonderful days in Ron’s Hat Creek Retreat. Ron was a great host with lots of great local tips. Had originally planned to fish as I had read the fishing was great in the area. Due to winds we were not able to. However there is no shortage of beautiful country and things to do within an hour of here. Even if you never left the retreat you would have a great time! This property is very private and beautiful. The home has everything you need and fit 4 adults and one pup very comfortably. Wished we had a few more days! We will definitely be back!!!

Beautiful slice of paradise!
Everything was 5 star, from the host communication prior to arrival and during if needed, to the cleanliness, to the location, amenities and more! Beautiful, spacious and secluded property, yet accessible and perfectly located within reach of the nearby town and many rivers. The attention to detail by Ron (host) in making it the perfect setup for any visitor is admirable. All you can think of and need is available and everything is clearly well maintained. The photos in the listing are spot on. It was an absolutely beautiful stay and we plan to go back! So glad we found such a gem! Highly recommend.

Fisherman's Paradise
When researching the rentals available in the Hat Creek area, I had something special in mind. A surprise birthday trip for my husband Matt. He's an avid fly fisher and had not fished Hat Creek since the 1990s. The cabin's location seemed perfect and the VRBO pictures sealed the deal. As others have indicated the renovation is great from furniture, flooring, even wall color, to nature paintings and sculptures throughout. Mustn't forget Hi Tech abounds. Everything worked as advertised and made for very cozy evenings with Roku streaming. The weather did not require a fire; however, the wood stove looked tempting. Matt said it was a joy to be within approx 15 minutes of reaching his daily fishing destinations. At day's end, he'd return excited to recount "stories" of the fish he caught and the numerous friendly fishermen he had the pleasure of meeting. The pictures he took showed just how beautiful the streams and the environment are, yet so close to home base. My review is primarily about the Perfect cabin for a fisherman and his wife. Other's reviews detail how well the cabin is stocked in every way, how functional it is, what activities are available in the cabin itself, as well as their exploration of the surrounding attractions and countryside. I want to end by saying what a delight it was communicating with Ron. From my first text discussing my desire for a surprise getaway, Ron has been helpful and quite creative in maintaining that secrecy. We'll be back!

Outstanding 5/5
I hesitate to expound on how outstanding our overall experience was because we are selfish and want to be able to come back whenever we want to. Once others continue to experience what we have Ron will be even more swamped than he is currently. 1. Owner: Ron is truly top tier with regard to his forethough. It is abundantly clear that he meticulously plans literally every desire/need his guests might have. Again, I hesitate to mention this as well because I’d hate to see him taken advantage of by less thoughtful folks who don’t plan for themselves. However, noting it is required as we have literally never been so impressed at the organization and foresight he demonstrates. 2. Property: very quiet and well apportioned with RV hookup and EV charging. First rate fire pit area with all safety requirements and an archery range are great. Ron provides plenty of chairs and seating. There are many trailheads and outdoor activities in proximity and Burney has several restaurants as well as a Safeway less than 20 mins away. A stop at Costco in Redding is warranted as the kitchen is full up with everything you’d need to feed a family three meals a day. Accommodation: we’ve covered the kitchen already. What Ron has done with what is about 1K sqft is astounding. While we are only a retired couple the property easily accommodates two couples in extremely comfortable king beds with another single bed plus bunk beds. There are three TVs w/ROKU. Out of space…BL - A++!

Perfect cozy cabin get away!
From start to finish this trip was amazing. Easy to book and involved host. The cabin was extremely clean with everything you could want or need. Host thought of everything even the items you may have forgotten. Cabin has all the modern tech and internet works as it should! Very close to Burney Falls and within driving distance to several other nature trails and falls. Beds are comfortable. We enjoyed camp fires around the fire pit and relaxing by the fire place after a long day of exploring. Kitchen is fully stocked. We could not have had a better time!

A memorable stay for our family!
Came up for some family time away from the city bustle, and this place was great ❤️ beautiful views, well stocked, so much outdoor space for the kids to run and play with their little gifts (thanks again!). It rained the entire trip but we came prepared and was able to visit most of the sites we wanted to see and some snow play. Out of everything we did, relaxing at the cabin was the favorite for our little people 😄 Thank you Ron, and hope to visit for another stay!

Hat Creek Christmas
The perfect place to getaway, we had a rough end to our year and decided as a family to getaway for Christmas. It was perfect for us. Lots of outdoor space for our dog. Comfy beds and linens. Loved the wood burning stove and all the firewood we could possibly need for our stay. The weather was Brisk!!! The host was on top of everything and the cabin was tidy and provided anything we may have forgotten, toothpaste, shampoo, shower gel, tooth brushes. Also left us a complimentary bottle of wine, which was very thoughtful. We look forward to going back when the area is open for the season so we can visit Lassen Volcanic park and Burney falls. Thank you Ron for everything and we look forward to staying there again.

Excellent VRBO Home
The home is beautiful, looks to be newly remodeled. The kitchen has everything needed for cooking/baking. The neighborhood is quiet and the views at sunset were amazing. We brought our telescope with us and were able to see Saturn and the Blue Moon. It was breathtaking. The home is a short 10-15 minute drive to our favorite fishing area, and the fishing this year was amazing! Thanks Ron for a fabulous week of fishing and fun!

The home and surrounding property was exactly as described. The neighborhood is quiet and the views in all directions are breathtaking. Burney was a short 15 minute drive away with lots of shops and stores. The drive into the Park took only 35 minutes so we visited both full days we were there.
